Editorial Book Review:
By Lauren Myers
Elisha Daeva's engrossing book skillfully weaves together themes of love, grief, and liberation to give readers a fascinating glimpse into one woman's transformative experience. Daeva uses poetic words and unashamed honesty to take readers on a captivating journey through the human psyche against the backdrop of the global Tantra scene.
Essentially, the memoir is a poignant story of Elisha's breakdown and subsequent recovery from a heartbreaking breakup that upends the carefully constructed life she had built. She confronts her deepest traumas and learns new insights into the nature of desire and connection through her travels and conversations with Tantra practitioners.
The narrative "Wild Thing in Captivity" shares similarities with "Eat, Pray, Love," but it also takes a provocative turn that sets it apart as a tale of a Generation X coming-of-age. Daeva's story unfolds like a detective book as she methodically examines her past through the lens of her core wound, offering readers a unique and personal glimpse into the realm of female sex.
In conclusion, "Wild Thing in Captivity" is a genuinely profoundly resonant work that is both engaging and truly moving. Because of Elisha Daeva's perceptive observations and excellent writing, this is a must-read for anybody trying to comprehend the complexities of love, bereavement, and self-discovery.
